Interview
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes! As a kid, I got a typewriter as a Christmas gift one year. Typing with a laptop is much quieter.
How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?
Email works best.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
A shorthand piece looking at the volunteer psychologists working aboard Sicily's refugee ships during the COVID-19 lockdowns.
When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?
Cycling or walking at the beach - even in the winter!
